Hey, welcome to Truth Be Told.
I'm Tonya Mosley.
It's the New year and like every year, we have this game that we play.
Compiling a list of resolutions to be more productive, pushing ourselves to the limit to attain some version of ourselves that will be better than the last.
I am so guilty of this, and I actually don't think it's a bad thing.
But this year I'm going to try a different approach.
No resolutions, no promises.
Except for one.
Instead of depleting myself to give more to everyone else, I'm going to give back by pouring into myself.
Because I am so over grind culture.
And I know I've been saying that for years, but it actually is a process to unwind from that way of thinking.
Especially when society has really taught you that your worth is based on what you can produce.
NAT Ministry founder Tricia Hersey has been talking about this for years, so I thought now is the perfect time to revisit our 2022 conversation.
Hersey says we should treat our bodies not as hustle machines, but as living, divine beings that need rest.
I hope you enjoy this episode and the eight others we'll be featuring over the next few weeks under the banner Truth Be Told, Time to Thrive.
You can also go back and binge seasons one through five and on this feed you can find Truth Be Told presents she has a Name.
Just a lot of amazing listening.
Sit back, relax and enjoy.
They say 4am is the most productive hour of the day.
All right, it is 4:15.
